DOH: Subvariant of COVID-19 Delta strain not yet detected in Philippines

MANILA - The Department of Health on Thursday said it has yet to detect the local presence of a subvariant of the more contagious COVID-19 Delta strain, adding that they are monitoring strains closely.

"The particular Delta sublineage has not yet been detected among the COVID-19 positive samples sequenced in the country. While this is being investigated, we emphasize that regardless of the variant, all COVID-19 cases should be managed similarly and as per current protocols," Health Undersecretary Maria Rosario Vergeire said.

The AY 4.2. variant has yet to be classified by the World Health Organization as a variant of concern or variant of interest.
